HMS Experiment (1712)

HMS Experiment was a British Royal Navy frigate that served in the Caribbean Sea during the Golden Age of Piracy. The Experiment was attacked by the crew of the pirate ship Jackdaw, commanded by Edward Kenway, off the coast of Jamaica in September 1719, as the ship was carrying much-needed metal. The Jackdaw succeeded in immobilizing and capturing the ship, and it was looted of its cargo.
